In September 2007, Proper Cornish Food Company announced a £200K investment into updating its brand identity to better reflect the company's key product messages of provenance, premium and quality.
The investment forms part of Proper Cornish Food Company's wider marketing strategy to extend its bakery product offering. The new branding now features on everything from swing signs outside local bakeries to new delivery van livery. The Proper Cornish website has also been revamped to reflect the new branding and to provide greater detail of the company's history and product offering.
